[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not that many parents fall for it. It's that many parents have no choice. What is the alternative? Private school? I agree the problem is with the curriculum. Who is writing it and why are they trying to reinvent the wheel when there are good curricula out there? This is a mess and our kids are paying the price. I met with a teacher to look at one of the tests they "can't" send home. I wanted to note some area where my child missed questions and was told, "I have to ask you not to take notes on the test." [/quote] Well, yes, in our case private school was the alternative. But here's another option: don't insist or even assent to putting your kid in the fast-track class if s/he needs tutoring to stay afloat. This simply perpetuates the systemic over-acceleration.
